However, plant benefits extend beyond aesthetics. Here are a few health benefits of plants in your bathroom: <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Supports Mental Health<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Looking for a way to de-stress during the workday? <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4419447\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Research<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"> shows that indoor plants help reduce stress, which ultimately benefits your mental health. Try adding an indoor plant, such as a Eucalyptus branch, to your workspace or shower. Eucalyptus plants are known for their soothing scent, which can help your shower smell fresh and clean.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ideas.kohler.com\/mood-board\/handsome-garden-master-bath\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5166 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kohlershowers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img-plants-on-bathroom-sink-640x426.jpg\" alt=\"Picture of Plants on Bathroom Sink\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kohlershowers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img-plants-on-bathroom-sink-640x426.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.kohlershowers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img-plants-on-bathroom-sink-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kohlershowers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img-plants-on-bathroom-sink.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Improve Air Quality<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">According to the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/wexnermedical.osu.edu\/blog\/houseplants-are-good-for-your-mental-health\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Ohio State University Medical Center<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">, plants can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the air and increase oxygen. When you add plants to your shower, this can improve the air quality. Better breathing in your shower can help you recharge or start your day with some peace.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Increase Positive Energy<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ellisonchair.tamu.edu\/health-and-well-being-benefits-of-plants\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Research<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"> shows that plants can boost your positive energy by reminding you of calming nature scenery. Since the bathroom is a space for self-care, plants are an excellent addition to promote inner peace. Plants create a soothing background for mindfulness and meditation. Also, you can match the plants to the wall colors in your bathroom.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ideas.kohler.com\/mood-board\/midnight-canopy-bathroom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5240 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kohlershowers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img-plants-in-bathroom-640x427.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kohlershowers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img-plants-in-bathroom-640x427.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.kohlershowers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img-plants-in-bathroom-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kohlershowers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img-plants-in-bathroom.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">What Types of Plants Can Survive in the Shower?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">The following plants are great for your shower because they prefer indirect light: <\/span><\/p>\n      <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n\n<section id=\"content-block_d875274ae6d91155b3cc891d71d92686\" class=\"section section--article-content styled-lists\">\n  <div class=\"wrapper\">\n          <div class=\"number-container\">\n                  <span class=\"number\">\n            1          <\/span>\n                          <h3>Golden Pothos<\/h3>\n              <\/div>\n              <div class=\"content-body\">\n        <p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.almanac.com\/plant\/pothos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">The golden pothos<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"> is known for its distinctly shaped leaves and bright colors.
